Just finished The Prisoner's Dilema by @jkass99.bsky.social. Freaking well written scifi by the same guy who did Hooligans of Kandahar.
It's basically like Scalzi with a DD214 to me. Well done battle scenes with the tint of the level of jaundiced eyes that spending time in the military generates.

Congrats on inventing insider trading war crimes, America

I can't believe the first man to be awarded the FIFA Peace Prize would do this (again)

That's the fun part. American style politics come for us all no matter where we go

Anyone who is still buying this shit about Iran's nuclear program has the brain of a dog.

I love hockey. It's a religion in my family.

Hockey players (myself included) are dumb as hell.

It isn't surprising that Bill Guerin, a guy who once covered up a sexual assault, also really likes Kash Patel.

But I did mean red wings management telling him to take shit down because it was going to cause problems for the team.

Judging from his other choices over the years that is incredibly unsurprising

I wouldn't be surprised if the coach or GM of the wings told him to take it down since they've always made sure to be aggressively apolitical and keep the players from saying anything stupid

Sucks real bad!

It's true

And of course the guy leading the charge (via non stop Instagram stories) is the captain of the red wings and a hometown guy.

I remember how happy I was when a guy from Michigan was named captain of the team

I'm just constantly putting up Ls here.

There is nothing worse than recording a podcast talking about hockey *before* the US won because

1) I said they probably weren't going to medal at all.

And

2) they not only won but then showed themselves to be dickheads.

Pitching an Air Bud spin-off of The Pitt to Netflix and getting beaten to death by executives after requesting the dogs be members of Local Air Bud 755
